For a spectacular Calvinist movie, watch Eastwood's "Unforgiven." Note especially the epilogue.

All in all, a perfect movie.

Even "The Matrix" is a good film about the difference in men's perceptions of the world -- carnal or spiritual; in the matrix or liberated from it.

Now I know why I like that movie so much. :) I've never thought about it in those terms before, but you're absolutely right:

“There was nothing on the stone to explain to Mrs. Feathers why her only daughter had married a known thief and murderer, a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition.”

I also love the Matrix trilogy. They certainly deal with the "what is real" question we've been talking about.
